“Fat Beach Day” events are appearing across the United States, aiming to create spaces for the plus-size community to gather — including one Saturday in Far Rockaway.

“I’m so self-conscious at the beach, and I’m never around people that look like me,” Emma Zack, who started Berriez in 2018, told the outlet. “I’m excited we’ve created this space for folks with bigger bodies to have a good time.”

They need the space of an aircraft carrier deck so they can spread out and feel comfortable

I still remember about 25 years ago a friend invited me to join her and her daughters at the neighborhood pool to introduce me to her single friends and neighbors. There was one woman with many, many rolls of fat, wearing a bikini and I was left asking myself if she had the bikini on the right rolls. Ugh!
I just finished a cheeseburger 🍔 with lettuce pickles, fries 🍟 on the side and a large soda 🥤.

Oh I had Heinz 57 on my cheeseburger 🍔
Let me be insensitive but real.
Wouldn’t that cause the waters in the oceans and lakes to rise, which is one of the repercussions from climate-change that environmentalists warn us about?
